EDVAC (ang. Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer) – maszyna zbudowana według projektu J. Prespera Eckerta, J.W. Mauchly'ego i Johna von Neumanna, oddana w kwietniu 1949, działająca od stycznia 1952 do końca 1962 . Projekt komputera zaczął powstawać w roku 1944, w trakcie prac nad jego poprzednikiem, ENIAC-iem.
5 lut 2016 · Unlike most discussion of early computers, this book focuses on ways in which ENIAC was used, and the relationship of its design to computational practice, particularly its use between 1948 and 1950 to conduct the first computerized Monte Caro simulations for Los Alamos.
This chapter charts the rapid evolution of thinking about programming and computer architecture among members of the ENIAC team from 1944 onward, as what is usually called the “stored program concept” was formulated with John von Neumann and presented in the “First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC.”. Use of archival sources makes this ...
EDVAC (Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer) was one of the earliest electronic computers. It was built by Moore School of Electrical Engineering, Pennsylvania. [1][2]: 626–628 Along with ORDVAC, it was a successor to the ENIAC.
3 lip 2016 · EDVAC was notably faster than ENIAC and it consumed 56kW of power, around one third of that used by ENIAC! In general, it was a reliable computer that was kept in service until 1961.
22 cze 2016 · 4.4 ENIAC and EDVAC. The Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC) was one of the first large general-purpose digital computers. It was used to integrate ballistic equations and to calculate the trajectories of naval shells. It was completed in 1946, and it remained in use until 1955.
The chapter “Global Overview of Early Digital Computers (Tables)” gives an overview of the first (mechanical) relay and (electronic) vacuum tube computers. These are presented in alphabetical order and (in abbreviated form) in chronological order (1939–1953), together with the most important attributes and detailed descriptions.
